Returns a double value that is the tangent of its radian argument. Format #include <math.h> double tan (double x); float tanf (float x); (Integrity servers, Alpha) long double tanl (long double x); (Integrity servers, Alpha) double tand (double x); (Integrity servers, Alpha) float tandf (float x); (Integrity servers, Alpha) long double tandl (long double x); (Integrity servers, Alpha)
1 – Argument
x A radian expressed as a real number.
2 – Description
The tan functions compute the tangent of x, measured in radians. The tand functions compute the tangent of x, measured in degrees.
3 – Return Values
x The tangent of the argument. HUGE_VAL x is a singular point ( . . . -3pi/2, -pi/2, pi/2 . . . ). NaN x is NaN; errno is set to EDOM. 0 x is Infinity; errno is set to EDOM. HUGE_VAL Overflow occurred; errno is set to ERANGE. 0 Underflow occurred; errno is set to ERANGE.
